Every single day, be it in fair or foul weather, our pups are out there with us helping us with chores on the farm. This isn't all too uncommon on farms, as many have such characters, but given their important roles in helping us out and offering companionship through difficult manual labor on hot and humid days or frigid days below zero, I thought it important to introduce them to you properly.
If you follow our Instagram account, you may already be familiar with their faces, but here I offer you proper introductions.

Yoshi
Yoshi is the oldest of our current companions, having just turned ten this past fall. He is, also, arguably the most loyal in helping out with farm chores, especially in the summer when conditions are boiling and we are out gallivanting in the back corners of the farm. Yoshi is sweet, patient, loves to play fetch and to be around his humans.
Rakas
Rakas joined the family three Christmases ago, when we adopted her from rough circumstances. She is a dog with more love and enthusiasm than any other we'd ever encountered, and thus we named her accordingly (Rakas = Finnish word for love). Rakas will be the first to greet us in the morning outside the door with a wiggling bottom and big smile on her face. She also sometimes gets up to trouble by chasing chickens about when she's bored (a habit we are working on getting her to break).
THoreau (AKA: Thor)
Thoreau (also referred to as Thor) is the newest member of the Dryak family, having joined us as a puppy in spring of 2018. Thor is a real Daddy's boy, loving to spend his time on the farm with Tony as much as possible. Thor is very sweet in demeanor and loves to be close to his humans. He is also a pretty independent pup though, and sometimes prefers to do his own thing as we are moving about the farm.
Pups of the past
Over the years farm pups have come and gone, but they all hold a very dear place in our hearts.
